I am interested in the RV-5, be good to know what your impressions of it are like. I will probably see if I can pick one up on eBay.

I will let you know if I get there first !

I have a midiverb IV and it is great ! I have only used it as an insert for my mic pre as the foot controller options are limited and it likes line level signal. It would be fun to stick it in an effects loop and run it off of a midi-controller floor bored !
